Rebellion

Spartacus' slave uprising threatens Rome on its own turf. Arminius, born in Germania but raised a Roman, chooses a side in the fight for freedom.

Arminius unites tribes and sets up an ambush to drive Rome out of Germania. Boudica wreaks bloody havoc on the Empire. Rome's betrayal of the Goths leads to an apocalyptic clash.

Revenge

Led by Alaric, the Goths sack Rome. Attila the Hun seizes power in the midst of chaos and destruction, while the barbarians move in for the kill. Geiseric, king of the Vandals, masterminds the end of Rome. The Roman Empire falls.

Ruin

Told from the perspective of the rebel leaders, the series chronicles a wave of rebellions against absolute power by those the Roman Empire called “barbarians” – tribes they viewed as beyond the fringe of civilization that lived a brutish and violent existence. But these also were men and women who launched epic struggles that shaped the world to come with a centuries-long fight to defeat the sprawling empire.
